There have been a half dozen verses posted that are clear as to the need of all humanity being in need of a Saviour, and that he is Jesus. You always just yell that Mary is not singled out. Precisely she is one of the " all" and that is the point.

St. Paul says that one place and in another he says this. Romans 5:14

"But death reigned from Adam unto Moses, even over them also who have not sinned after the similitude of the transgression of Adam, who is a figure of him who was to come."

Which is it? All have sinned or only some have sinned after the similitude of the trangression of Adam? He clearly states here there were some that have not sinned.

Context, context, context:

Paul clearly states it the preceding verses that all HAVE sinned. You cannot take one verse out of a paragraph to prove the opposite of what the paragraph has stated. How very dishonest.
